The winters are here! From quilted jackets over lehenga sets to short tuxedo jackets for the red carpet, there’s a lot to choose from when it gets colder. Although the temperature varies in different parts of India, you can always experiment with the fabric. If you like to keep it light but still warm, choose capes and if you are someone who can handle the cold, jackets are a must-have.
And while you are looking for jackets or capes, choose something that is not only functional, but also stylish and chic. Celebrities like Rashmika Mandanna, Sonakshi Sinha, Prateek Babbar, Ayushmann Khurrana and Kubbra Sait have already welcomed winter with their super cool ensembles. Here’s how to combine and style your winter wardrobe with panache.
Padded jacket
Winter weddings are fun, but the weather can sometimes rain on your style parade. Not many wedding outfits revolve around keeping warm during the winter. Indian lehenga sets sometimes have very little room to experiment with when it comes to layering. So, if you are someone who can’t stand the cold and are usually disappointed when they have to attend a winter wedding because you can’t wear your favorite lehenga. Then Ritu Kumar has just the jacket for you. Her label Aarke has some cool and super chic quilted jackets to layer over a lehenga set. They come in matching prints and create a unique look for winter weddings.
Cropped tuxedo jacket
A man in a tuxedo is all we need this winter. For those who want to go beyond the classic tuxedo look, go for the cropped tuxedo jacket that is making creative waves around the world. Actor Prateek Babbar looks suave and dapper in a cropped wool tuxedo designed by Shahab Durazi and styled by Rahul Vijay, with the classy look like a boss. Cropped tuxedo jackets can be tricky if not styled according to your personality. However, it’s time to experiment this season and give your look something unique and eternal. Add a touch of sparkle to your jacket and pair it with the classic shirt and trousers.
Asymmetrical jacket
There is always room for experimentation when it comes to women’s jackets. Sonakshi Sinha was the winner of the asymmetrical jacket designed by AK-OK. She paired it with a matching draped lungi skirt. The colorful jacket creates the illusion of a painted canvas with abstract art. You can always try this look for a fun brunch and pair it with another long coat when the weather gets a little cooler. You could also pair this asymmetrical jacket with a pre-draped saree or quirky lehenga skirt.
Embroidered jacket
Relaxed fit jackets are like a warm hug on a winter morning. Kubbra Sait looks suave in an ivory long jacket embroidered with moth circles. Adding a splash of color to her look, she paired the Antar-Agni jacket with burnt orange skirt pants. Similarly, playing with embroidery in his fresh look, actor Ayushmann Khurran wore a double-breasted blazer jacket with dancing city-themed embroidery. The jacket also came with welt pockets and lining. While ivory and black are classic choices for winter wear, you can always add a pop of color with embroidery details.
Printed cape
You can never go wrong with a cape this winter season. There are a variety of patterns, designs and prints to choose from. However, be sure to choose a cape depending on the climate of the region. Rashmika Mandanna nails the indo-western look in a silk printed cape with antique sequins designed by the Anushree label. She paired the cape with a nandi beaded bustier and ajrakh palazzos. The ensemble, full of prints and colors, is perfect for a beach wedding to show off your dance moves. You always call out a scarf or a quirky bomber jacket when it gets chilly at night.
